Nuclear Fusion Enhancement by Heavy Nuclear Catalysts
Christopher Grayson, Johann Rafelski
We seek to understand the effect of high electron density in the proximity of a heavy nucleus on the fusion reaction rates in a hot plasma phase. We investigate quantitatively the…
Quarks to Cosmos: Particles and Plasma in Cosmological evolution
Johann Rafelski, Jeremiah Birrell, Christopher Grayson +2
We describe in the context of the particle physics (PP) standard model (SM) `PP-SM' the understanding of the primordial properties and composition of the Universe in the temperatur…
Self-consistent strong screening applied to thermonuclear reactions
Christopher Grayson, Cheng Tao Yang, Martin Formanek +1
Self-consistent strong plasma screening around light nuclei is implemented in the Big Bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) epoch to determine the short-range screening potential, $eϕ(r)/T \g…
Electron-positron plasma in BBN: damped-dynamic screening
Christopher Grayson, Cheng Tao Yang, Martin Formanek +1
We characterize in detail the very dense plasma present during the Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) and explore how it is perturbed electromagnetically by \lq\lq impuriti…
Dynamic Magnetic Response of Quark-Gluon Plasma to Electromagnetic Fields
Christopher Grayson, Martin Formanek, Johann Rafelski +1
We investigate the electromagnetic response of a viscous quark-gluon plasma in the framework of the relativistic Boltzmann equation with current conserving collision term. Our form…
Current-Conserving Relativistic Linear Response for Collisional Plasmas
Martin Formanek, Christopher Grayson, Johann Rafelski +1
We investigate the response of a relativistic plasma to electromagnetic fields in the framework of the Boltzmann equation incorporating a collision term in the relaxation rate appr…
